Bottle from Tesco. Mid-gold colour with white, rapidly diminishing head. Aroma is peach, peach, peach, bubblegum, peach, bubblegum, peach and peach. Initially sweet, it leaves a, surprisingly, peach residual taste that feels entirely chemical. Nicely balanced body. I won’t be having this again, as it’s not to my tastes, but there’s nothing offensive here and they’re to be congratulated on a flawed experiment. One for the ladies, perhaps?

500ml bottle from Waitrose. Clear bubbly gold, average stiff white foamy head. WTF is with that aroma? Apricot marmalade and sweet roses - nothing beer like here, but very pleasant. The taste is oddly grainy, still heavy on the apricot but drier, with a bit of tartness and biscuit. Stinging carbonation over a weak sticky body, with a fruit compote linger - this is very hard to rate: it’s too sweet, inappropriately fruity, yet I didn’t hate it.

Bottle. Deep amber beer with a white head. Aroma is moderately fruity and loaded with peach and melons along with orange peel. Very floral with lavender, rose petals and even a kiss of spicy/citrusy hops on the back. Flavour shows loads of aromatic peach fruitiness and heady floral character. Bright fruity bitterness. It’s a very unusual beer and it’s hard to believe that there isn’t fruit juice or artificial fruit flavourings in here. It’s not really sweet per se, but it’s so fruity that it appears to be.

500ml bottle from shop. Golden colour, fruity and quite sweet, decent texture but not amazing prefer something nicer and less artificial

Bottle. A very strong smell of perfume, flowery and sweet, a little bit strange. A medium sized white creamy head and a clear dark orange body. A light bitter and strange taste with a medium duration. Dry texture, lively carbonation with a light to medium body. A quite strange beer...
